Hello,

Here(oggenc GCC 3.1 Compile thread) there are links to john33's batch files and Makefiles for building architecture-specific compiles of oggenc with mingw GCC.

The batch files work well for me, and I'm very happy with the generated binaries.

I tried modifying the batch files and Makefiles to build oggdec. I used GCC 3.2 with Ogg Vorbis 1.0 sources, but found that the resulting binaries always ran slower than the MSVC binary of oggdec available at vorbis.com.

Is this to be expected, or am I doing something wrong? I mean, have any of you encountered the same findings?

If other people do indeed find that john33's batch files and Makefiles create slower oggdec binaries, are john33's batch files somehow tuned to build fast versions of oggenc and oggenc only? Would it be possible to speed up the GCC compiles of oggdec by changing the compiler flags?

I haven't tried modifying the compiler flags yet, (um, me bad,) but I'd like to know if this 'behaviour' is due to something wrong on my part. Thanks in advance.. : )

Sorry for the delayed response, but I have compiled the official oggdec using MinGW32 (GCC3.2) and there is no real speed difference between that and the ICL compile. The batch file and makefile I used are here, but you will need to edit them regarding source directories, as before.

Hope that helps!
